One of the biggest concerns people have in shopping around for a custom suit is cost. It's no secret that getting a custom suit made can be expensive. But how expensive? And why should you shell out for it instead of just getting something off the rack? Considering the interest in the topic, we thought we'd write a post on the cost of our custom wear at Watson Ellis and how / why we believe it's justified.

Why settle for off-the-rack when you can wear a suit designed exclusively for you? Our expert designers at Watson Ellis work closely with you to blend the masculine and feminine elements of your choice. You can still wear white on your wedding day while not having to wear a dress. Our women’s white suits are a conscious blend of tailoring for your specific body but also to help create fashion forward bridal attire, blending the classic with the modern.

Except for some of our earliest shots, all the photos on our website are of real clients wearing suits that we have actually made. We use real clients to model our suits, not models (although some of our clients have actually been models, which is great too!), because we want everyone to see how great they too could look in a custom suit. We want to give an accurate impression of what we can do for you. And because we think our clients are truly beautiful and we want to celebrate them.

We’re so thrilled to be making more and more custom suits for women. Come and join the women’s suit revolution!
